What Parents Love…

Wildcraft! connects players with nature

Wildcraft! brings you through several ecosystems while you are going up the mountain. Plants on the board are positioned in the ecosystems they would naturally grow in. Therefore, players are learning about plants, where they grow, and what to use them for on several levels.

Wildcraft! fosters a connection to nature. Before you know it, you and your kids will be identifying plants in the park or yard… and you’ll find yourself saying, “Hey! That’s chickweed! I can eat that AND use it to heal a wound.”

Wildcraft! teaches about edible plants and healing herbs

Well, this is obvious, but we wanted to mention that the game teaches plant uses on a food and first aid level. Chronic health issues are not addressed. How to properly use the plants, when to pick them, and what parts to use are not addressed in the game.

Wildcraft! keeps it simple and keeps it safe!

Wildcraft! is great for younger players

Since the game is “icon” driven, once your child has played once or twice, they can play on their own.

No reading is required. Older kids and adults will get A LOT from this game. However, even if your 5-year-old isn’t reading, they are “patterning” on what the plants look like and what you can use them for. You can also make up simpler rules for the wee ones.

And NO prior knowledge of plants is needed.

The Reviews

Wildcraft! is great family fun. Gather up the kids, bring out the board game, and learn about medicinal and edible plants in the most fun way imaginable.

This is wonderfully cooperative game where everyone is a winner and everyone learns something about plants!

Wildcraft is a blast! Green cooperation, herbs, healing, eating and lots of fun.

If only I had this when I was growing up in London, I might have become a herbalist by now….

I love your herbal game! A youngin’ I played with took to the game like a duck in water. No reading of the rules really needed. He was bouncing all over the place finding the herbs which matched his troubles and so easily giving cooperation to others to help them move up the board or identify and give them needed herbs.

The herb drawings are wonderful – just enough detail to recognize – the uses for the troubles great with the variety of possibilities, the colors vibrant, the play cooperative, teaching, fun and suspenseful all wrapped up together in one fun time!!!

Lesley Tierra, L.Ac.Author of A Kid’s Herbal & The Herbs of Life

I found a game I love the best. My daughter and I play this more than any other board game in the house. Now she remembers more about herbs from our wilderness walks. At age six, she knows more binomial spelling than any school curriculum covers. She learned telling time from the way the moon moves, we both laugh at our “troubles” on the path and delight in our creativity as we use whatever herbs we gathered to heal each other. Everyone in our family says “Yes” to spending free time on An Herbal Adventure. Plus, concern for Grandma, the role-playing, and the visual beauty of the game spark our love of Art and family. After years spent playing and teaching cooperative games from the Findhorn community, I found a game I love the best.

5 Stars from Rebecca E. Henkins in Florida

I teach herbs and find this a very easy and non-intimidating way to get everyone looking at their “weeds” differently. Helps people to learn that some of those so called weeds, are actually quite useful. A wonderful introduction for anyone who is even remotely curious about a safe game for all ages where everyone comes out a winner. I enjoy it as a fun family game once in a while, and use it for fun classes for my herb students who are just beginning, and as a refresher of common basics to the more advanced. If you have an avid outdoors person, camper, hiker, child, gardener or anyone who is outside or heck – alive – then consider this safe, fun and learning game.

5 Stars from Jenne Alderks in Washington

Wildcraft is our family’s favorite game for the wholesomeness of its purpose: hiking in a woodland setting to pick huckleberries for pie at Grandma’s house. All along the way, identify and collect native growing herbs that can be used for healing any ailments that come up along the way. Our family loves playing this game and it has encouraged us to get out in nature and recreate the game in real life. This is not a watered down pointless child’s game, but one that in infused with meaning and purpose. Nature awareness and appreciation is sorely lacking and this game introduces it in a very engaging way. Reading is not required because of the symbols for young children to match the illustrations with one another.

5 Stars from K. Will

I bought this board game for myself (50 years old) because I learn best through pictures and interactive material and I wanted to learn more about herbs. My 4 year old niece LOVED it and was faster than me in identifying the herbs that helped with different remedies. She is very competitive so it was great to have a game with a cooperative component in which all win as long as we help each other along the way. The game has a chutes and ladders type layout and is very beautifully illustrated.

5 Stars from R. Racca in Colorado

This is an amazing game to teach kids about herbs. The artwork is gorgeous, the game isn’t difficult to learn and it’s well worth the cost! So glad I found it!

5 Stars from Robin P.

We are new to the world of herbal medicines so when I was looking for an easy introduction, I found Wildcraft! WONDERFUL game! My 7 and 8 year old boys beg to play it, even before breakfast! :) At first they were disappointed that no one “won” since it is a cooperative game, but when we got back to Grandma’s house before lunch, they were hooked. The second time we played was more challenging with more setbacks. I told them that at least there wasn’t a space that said we lost all our huckleberries and had to go back up the mountain! It’s amazing how much we’ve learned about herbs and their uses in a fun way. No, it’s not an in-depth study, but something even better. It sparks in us a desire to “read more about it.” Now I’ll hear one of my sons say, “Have you tried some echinacea for that?”

4 Stars from R.K. Stimpson

This game is different from any other board game my family and I have ever played and we are avid game players. It is not competitive and yet leaves you with a sense of achievement when you are through. It is educational teaching us the various uses for different herbs we come across, leaving us with the desire to learn even more about herbs! Very beautiful art as well, not mention the game itself has many uses!

5 Stars from K.Hart from Indiana

This is not a corny game or hippie game. My conservative, hesitant, elderly aunt played it and loved it. Kids or people of all ages will learn alot and enjoy this game. Takes very reasonable amount of time to play. Keeps your interest and moves along well.

5 Stars from Jennifer Hudson in Washington

I love that this game encourages cooperation rather than teaching kids to win at all costs. We have had this game for a few months now, and it is one of our kids favorite – and I love that we are all learning about herbalism each time we play. We go hiking and camping a lot, and its great to have a game that we can play during the rainy seasons that helps fuel our families love of the outdoors.

5 Stars from Amy J. in Montana

I am always on the lookout for cooperative games and this one did not disappoint me. The game itself is gorgeous, and it’s also very educational. It allows my children to learn about herbs in a fun manner. I enjoy playing this game because I learn something too.

Highly recommended!!
